Dead or Alive 5: Last Round amounts to the definitive version of a game released back in 2012, which is both a good and a bad thing.
Resident Evil Revelations 2 is a paint-by-the-numbers exercise in survival horror lacking in bite strength
Mortal Kombat X is bloody well done
A challenging game with a colossal chip on its shoulder
A solid shooter standing atop fan service and nostalgia
Splatoon is a beautiful new twist on the shooting genre, but lacks team chat and other modern norms.
Littered with bugs, excruciating load times, and a severely padded ending, ReCore is a great example of good ideas, flawed execution.
Not always thrilling, but Dead Rising 4 feels like the series getting its sense of fun back. And that's a great thing.
While it's certainly not perfect, Nier: Automata is nonetheless a breath of fresh air that will challenge your thumbs as well as your thinking - a game with hydrocarbon heart and silicon soul that will stay with you long after you've set the controller down.
At times mechanically clumsy, but artistically sound, Little Nightmares might get on your nerves every once in awhile, but its imagery will burrow into your brain and never leave.
